Just have to look at how many people are taking them to employment tribunal. I’ve never known a company that prefers to spend money on lawyers and payouts than fix the toxicity.
But virgin are only worried about one thing and that is brand image. Unfortunately for them more and more people realise it’s just Ryanair with long haul aircraft. And that’s not just amongst crew and colleagues past and present, passengers that used them in the past are saying the same.
It’s a real shame as I know it was better. When I joined all those many moons ago it was a friendly and collaborative environment where you could count on colleagues to look out for each other. Now because of the toxicity from above everyone is scared, crew will sell people down the river to get a promotion and no one dare question anything for fear of reprisal.
And it’s got to a point where I know from conversations with the flight ops inspector for the caa this is very much on their radar.
